Best version other than German or I'm just a sucker for pipe organ

I live in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The region now known for flooding. There are many descendants of Venetians here. Not me particularly, but my neighbors, colleagues, etc.

How many hymns have this the same song? The english hymn conquered the world!

[@Voland1871]

It’s actually of Austrian origin. Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser was the original version.

@@Voland1871 Really? I didn't knew that. Thank you!

The original theme is from Haydn's Kaiserquartett II movement and was written in 1797 but could be even older since the original tune was considered a popular song (which were usually passed orally), Haydn though was the first to put it on paper. here's a link to the quartett if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/v8ssyi0SvBk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=t2Zul5R7jVmjuPhj

Doesn't sound like the british hymn ...
The music is used since 1918 for the german hymn.
